During your travel in the vicinity you have a cold or flue? Then go to this pharmacy, which is located within this beautifully restored timber frame house called "Riedhaus".
It was built in 1800 by Andreas H. Ockios and Elisabeda Molin as can be read on one of the corner timber posts.

Centrally located stands a school dedicated to the most famous daughter of Meißenheim, the Friederike-Brion-School.
It is a so called "Grund- und Hauptschule", which means that pupils are educated here until the 9th year. If they want to continue their secondary education they have to move to another school.

"Gasthaus Sonne" means "Restaurant Sun".
It is an old but very beautiful timber frame house. Unfortunate that it is not a "Gasthaus" anymore. So if you are looking for a business idea ... ;)

Right beside the graves of Friederike Brion and her sister and brother-in-law stands another much older but very well preserved gravestone.
As written it was dedicated to Maria Eusebia Wurms who died on 5 November 1624.
